When Patrick Kluivert was named Curacao advisor earlier this month he set his sights on convincing a number of Dutch born players to switch their allegiances to the Caribbean nation.

Call ups for Aston Villa’s Leandro Bacuna, Vitesse’s Eloy Room, and former NAC winger Elson Hooi may have failed for now, but Kluivert has been able to call up seven Eredivisie players, with the likes of Twente centre back Darryl Lachman, and NAC duo Guyon Fernandez and Felitciano Zschusschen set to earn their first caps.
